oxide

9 6 2
                                    


i watch the snow fall

from the warmth inside

shimmering in the streetlight

like some undiscovered oxide


i sip my scotch slowly

and take a deep, deep sigh

as the snow covers my lawn

my beautiful green grass dies


tomorrow is my day off

and i have to wake up knowing

i will have to shovel snow

so please ... STOP SNOWING
